PENNELL SONG

Pennell, dear old Pennell,
To us you seem so dear.
What we are hereafter
We owe our school days here.
Let days seem bright or dreary,
Let things go right or wrong.
Well sing with cheerful hearts
The words of this old song.

Cnonus
We have come here day by day
As the hours pass away.
Every year here brings us nearer
To the time when we shall part,
Care and sadness in our hearts
We will think of the days spent here.

Kant E, Lrnny, Sn., '20

i

Ka

Although the Freshman class has not spe:
sored many activities, we feel we have donc
enough for the first year.

The Freshman class has contributed its
share of basketball players this winter and we
hope some will be chosen for baseball. Ken-
neth Hayes and Burchard Dunn were on the
varsity basketball team, and Stearns Caswell

and Richard Barter were on the Junior var-
sity. Judith Butler and Patricia Libby played

for the girls’ basketball team.

The boys who went out for fall baseball
were: Kenneth Hayes, Robert Gibbs, Stearns

Caswell, and Ruel Ordway.

The cheerleaders from the Freshman class
were: Judith Butler and Ruel Ordway.

Our second year at Pennell now nearly com-
leted, we find it time to “take stock" and look
ack over our achievements.

At the beginning of the fall term all our old
classmates were back, twenty-two students; and the
following officers were elected, for the year: Ruel
Ordway, President; Richard Barter, Vice-President
and Student Council Member; Ann Dingwell, Sec-
retary; Phillip Richardson, Treasurer, and Patty
Libby, Student Council Member.

Early this year, Phillip Richardson moved to
Texas, and we elected Burchard Dunn to take over
the duties of Treasurer. Mary and Josephine
Lockard joined us after the middle of the year.

CLASS REPORTS

The class officers were: President, Ruel
Ordway, Vice President, Wayne Sherwood,
Secretary, Robert Libby, Treasurer, Judith
Butler.

The members of the Freshman class were
very co-operative in paying their dues. The
class consists of twenty-nine pupils, seventeen
boys and twelve girls.

Although the Freshman class had the low-
est average in rank during the first term, we
climbed to the highest during the third and
fourth terms.

Rue Onpwar, '53.

lun as well.

Dunn, Stearns Caswell, and Richard Barter. On

VALUE OF ATHLETICS

Some people believe that too much stress is
placed on athletics. They believe that it is all
right to have sports, but that when athletics
are put over school subjects it is time to stop.
One of the reasons is that in many of our
present colleges money is given athletes for
playing.

Sports are a source of income for many of
our high schools. The receipts are used to
buy sporting equipment in most high schools
and colleges.

Some people belicve athletics develop sound,
clean minds and a will to strive for success,
and that athletes make better citizens. To be
sure, athletics develop a rugged, competitive
spirit, but is this sometimes destroyed by too
much glory? How much better citizen wi l the
plain non-sportsminded fellow make than the
athlete?

To me athletics are worthwhile and im-
portant to a democratic nation. It is one
thing in which everyone has an se chance,
and whether a man is dark or white, it does
not mean he is a better athlete.

Kenner Hayes, 53.

STARTING OFF

IIt's a cold frosty morning,
And the fire feels so good;
TThe coffee's gently perking,
While the stove is stoked with wood.

It's mighty hard to start,
But we drag ourselves away
FFrom the heat of the kitchen
As we start our hunting day.

He's five o'clock already,
With night's darkness hardly gone,
BBut there's light enough to see by,
And the deer are up at dawn.

IFor a second all are wishing
That they might be home in bed;
IBut the moment quickly passes,
And cheer comes in its stead,

"We are ready for the day,
And here comes the sun;
"The guns are loaded quickly
And hunting has begun.
Stearns Caswell, '53

THE TREE
The tree, Nature's gift, so high,
Towers upward to the sky;
Its age depends upon its rings,
Which are peculiar looking things.

Its roots are long and round,
With no end to them beneath the graund;
These roots arc its strength and, in time,
Make it stand erect in storm or shine.

Its limbs stretch out from every side,
And on most trees are large and wide;
In evergreens there is no end,
And, when winter comes, snow makes them ben

The leaves are its source af food,
"Though they're of many shapes and crude;
They protect the birds from summer's wind a
rain,
And hide the squirrel from the hunter's brain.

The tree's a wondrous thing on our great earth;
It was here before our forefather's birth;
And on a cold aad windy night
It burns in the fireplace, warm and bright.
Ruel Ordway, '5:

CYCLE OF DREAMS

Did you ever, at summer's end,

Sleep beneath the maples tall,

Dream and think of all the things
That go along with the coming of fall?

Of children hurrying off to school
To study, and learn their lessons well.
Of the flocks of birds now flying South
To remain there for a tropic spell?

Half dreaming, as you look around,
You rest your eyes upon the trees
And on the leaves of gold and brown
That flutter in the autumn breeze.

But better stop your dreaming now.
To think of still another thing:

Of winter that will come and go
And the coming of the spring.

And as you go to school each day
Wishing that spring were here,
Take each season as it comes

For together they form a year.

Nancy Reed, ‘53

THE STAG

From the twilizht of the rushes

Forth into the flush of sunset,
He moves with bending Grace.

Head erect, with crown uplifted,
Nostrils tense, hie eres depict
Accsution ncesurcd in his stetely pace.

Minutes seen to me like hours-

gave $25,000 for the building to be built.

Pennell Institute was erected in 1876. It was opened in
1886.

The town had no say of how the school could be run
until a few years ago. It was under the say of three trusteea. They
had the say of who could be teachers and when they would be fired,

The laboratory, which is now the Home Economics Building,

was erected in 1899. Upstairs was the chemistry room. Downstairs was
the physics room,

The two main drinking fountains were given by H. L. Foran,
and the alumni of Pennell Institute.

The Newbegin Gymnasium was erected in 1938. Part of the

money was given by George Newbegin and the rest with the help of a
government grant,

The Manual Arte Building was erected in 1950. It was opened
in early 1951,

There is no recorá of how many pupils were first enrolled in
Pennell Institute

There was one large room upstairs. They had a stage and they
held all the plays and assembly meetings there.

Up stairs was the Junior home room. Downstairs in the main
room was the Freshmen and Senior home room. Whet is now the library
was the Sophmore hone room.

There is no record of when Henry Pennell died, but George

Maine, the Land of Remembered Vacations

The tourest industry of Maine 18 very large. Over 450,000
people visit Maine each

year. More than half of them spent their
vacation at Maine's beautiful coast. Maine summer resort hotels have
a variety of locations to suit all tastes. There are also many over-
night camps and cabins. Mt. Desert Island is one famous resort.
The heautv of M

In Maine also, is the historical town of Pemaquid of which
it has been said, "It has more history to the square foot than any other
place in New England,"

It is little wonder that people call Maine the "Land of

THE SENIOR CLASS

The Seniors began the year with twenty-two students. We found two
new faces among the familiar ones, those of William Fernstrom from
Portland and Viestrus Pavasars from Long Island, New York. Robert
Doughty left school in the fall.

Ouf class officers for the year are as follows:
President-Burchard Dunn
Vice-President-Viestrus Pavasars
Secretary-Nancy Reed
Treasurer-Ann Dingwell
Student Gouncil-Patricia: Libby

We have had many activities this year such as the food sale, „=
selling Christmas cards, and selling milk at noon. We sponsored’ «y
the annual Senior Class Play, the Maypole Dance, the Cabaret, and
a Ken MacKenzie Show. These, plus other functions of years past
benefited our class trip to the Shenandoah Valley which we all
think was worth our struggles. Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Dunn were our
Chaperones during the trip.
